Although Tu Cheng’s Ancient Giant Beast and Golden Dragon was superior beasts and highly levelled, their strength were incomparable to the Reaper Mantis who had lived its life in the wild.
They were also incomparable to the Three-headed Chimera and the Gold-ranked White Bull who had guarded the Twelve Zodiacs Temple and possessed intelligence.
Although the Three-headed Chimera and the Gold White Bull weren’t Holy Beasts, they were not far from one.
A thought surfaced in Yue Yang’s mind. If beasts grew in that way, would human cultivation be similar too? A lot of warriors had clambered to ascend to Level 4 or even Level 5, but they couldn’t reach Level 6 their whole life afterwards. On the contrary, some other warriors who cultivated patiently and slowly, gaining strength steadily and advanced gradually could instead ascend to Level 6 [Elder] or even higher. For example, someone like Yue Bing, who had cultivated painstakingly all this while, her strength was comparable to some Level 5 [Grandmasters] and wouldn’t be disadvantaged in a fight although she was only a Level 3 [Hero]… Could this mean that the longer a warrior cultivate, the more breakthrough he experience, the stronger he would be amongst people of his ranks?
Yue Yang couldn’t be certain of this point.
But he decided to mentor Yue Bing in this way. He would not let her level up until her strength had far surpassed her level. In the end, she would naturally level up on her own.
Thinking of his own self, Yue Yang realized that he had gone through the same path.
“Bing-er, don’t be afraid. We still have the protective shield now, so they wouldn’t be able to do anything to us. Let’s go. Go througho the left of the hallway.” Yue Yang now realized that other than the difference in strength in different levels, beasts of the same level could also have a great difference in strength. There was also a huge difference in strength between intelligent beasts and ordinary beasts.
No wonder Grandma Wu Teng said that only an intelligent beast would be able to evolve into a Holy Beast.
The Gold-ranked Level 5 Gold Barbarian Bulls was actually supposed to be ten times weaker than this Gold-ranked Level 6 White Bull. But now it seemed that their strength differ by a hundred times.
When he fought that great battle with the Three-headed Chimera before, Xiao Wen Li had expended a huge amount of effort and had almost killed the Three-headed Chimera, but it had recovered to its initial state with the Aries Temple’s magic. Now it seemed like this White Bull was not an easy opponent either. If Yue Yang could use his Innate Strength, he would definitely be able to defeat it easily. But under the Ancient Laws in this Twelve Zodiac Temples in the Star Domain, he could only watch without doing anything. Furthermore, he had used too much Innate Strength previously. Even if he could use Innate Strength here, Yue Yang would need at least three months to recover first… Initially, Yue Yang had thought that he could clear the rest of the 11 temples in one go, but it seemed like it was not possible now.
